Will the end of XP support, end the code nuisance ?

My apologies if this has already been addressed. I have a terribly slow rural dial up connection of 26K and am using win98se with unofficial updates. I'd like to know if the end of support for XP (this year ??), means that I would be able to buy an XP disc and use that same code for my computer as well as my wifes. Seems like a pain in the rear to need different codes / keys (whatever) for two different home computers. If this problem disappears, I can switch to XP and get a broadband modem for high speed. 26K is a real drag.
